Quickbooks Enterprise Version 5 vs Quickbooks Version 5: file structure the same?

What I mean is, if I work on a company file using Enterprise 5.0, and then load that same company on file on a non-Enterprise Quickbooks 5 version, will I be able to work on the file without updating the file structure?

The reason I ask is that I requested that a client send me his data file so that I can review his work and make adjustments as needed, and I want him to be able to load the file, updated with my changes, on his system. I am running Enterprise, and he is running a 'regular' version of Quickbooks. Anyone know? Thanks!

When you open the file in ES, ES will upgrade the file format and that file can no longer be used by a non-enterprise version.

I'm disappointed. I hoped that at least files from the same version would be compatible. Anyhow, thanks for the answer, even though I did not like it.
